Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
If you want a gaming VM, Linux & Xen with a Win VM is the only current way to do it well. From what I've read of other solutions, they're not quite up to par yet. I don't think there's anything that runs reliably well on a Win / Win VM setup.

Thanks for the replies. I'll probably keep some and see if I can get anything for the rest (most are quite long). I may be able to pick up something later on when I eventually build my lab. Sadly my newer employer leases most of their hardware, so not much opportunity to acquire retired pieces...
I need to rewire my house, and was going to run Cat6 or so along with everything else. Work was tossing a couple hundred feet of free 10Gig fiber cables (LC 50/125) which I then rescued. Of course, I then realized the price point for 10Gig hardware was well outside being commonly acceptable for...
Tried a bunch of my older boards to much headache, and just figured "what the heck" and popped it in my newer gaming PC, and it flashed just fine, and seemed to work as well. Windows installed drivers upon next boot, but I didn't attach any drives to it. I planned on putting it in my old...
I've been reading up on all the various setups here & wanted to build up a proper dedicated ZFS based home storage setup & take my place on the storage showoff thread :D. I was hoping to wait until the great holiday sales to get a bunch of 3TB drives, but those darn floods have crushed my hopes...
